There was an island called Valeria on the Obello Ocean... Valeria has
flourished as a trade port. But there was a constant struggle between
the various ethnic groups. Each of them was trying to rule the entire
island. Then there was one man who put the everlasting war to an end.
His name was Dolgare, and he later became King of the island. King
Dolgare united the island. He encouraged mixed marriages and set up an
official religion. He tried to avoid hatred or arguments between the
different ethnic groups. For half a century, Valeria flourished under
Dolgare's reign. But the seeds of war were not completely destroyed...

After his death, Bishop Branta, the leader of the Bacrumese, dominated
the aristocrat class. With his help, they declared the independence of
the capital city of Heigm. Branta also signed a secret treaty with Lodis,
a major country to the north, and received military support. Thus, he
established Bacrum-Valeria. Branta wanted to rule the entire island, but
the Dark Knight Lans Tartare vetoed Branta's idea. Lans did not want to
waste the manpower by having a useless war. Lans was the leader of the
Dark Knight Order of Roslolian. The order was sent by Lodis to watch over
Branta. Branta had to accept this and gave up the invasion.

Southern Valeria, the only remaining territory, was split by two groups.
One was called Gargastan, a major ethnic group which covers 70% of the
population in Southern Valeria. There was a major nationalist movement
led by Cardinal Barbatos. They declared war against the Walstanians,
the other ethnic group that lived in Southern Valeria. The Gargastans
then massacred the Walstanians. Duke Ronway became the leader of
Walsta and fought against the Gargastans. But half a year later, Walsta
lost the war. Cardinal Barbatos established the Gargastan Kingdom and
declared the termination of the internal dispute between Walsta. However,
the oppression of Walstanians never ceased...

The remaining Walstanians resisted the Gargastan Kingdom's oppression.
But even that movement subsided when Duke Ronway was captured and
imprisoned. Most people were desperate and moved into a Walsta
self-governing district that the Gargastans provided. Thus the national
dispute in Valeria had settled down. Little did the people know that
that was only a temporary peace...
